Well, first off, I didn't stop at the yarn store on my drive home despite the urging of my internal yarn hoarder. I did however, stop at a speciality grocery in Brookfield, V. Richards, and came home with some chocolate. Yummy and funny....how could I resist???
I finished the wrist warmers for my dad though you see my hands modeling them for your viewing enjoyment courtesy of DH's photography.
They are drying from a washing to see if they will get a bit softer, though they were certainly acceptable before the wash. I'll mail them to Dad on Monday if I can make it to the post office depending on road conditions.
So, I'm settling in for a nice blizzard weekend. DH and I have two nice meals planned: grilled salmon with a salad tonight and a roast duck with stuffing tomorrow night. After I finish laundry, the weekend is pretty open chore-wise. I plan to knit more on Sonnet and I started a science fiction paperback this morning. Knitting is relaxing (usually) but reading really takes me away and lets my brain completely disengage. Reading fiction (especially science fiction/fantasy and mystery) is one of my ways of disengaging from any stress.
